Now if you want a real replacement, look up BTCZ. Thats a real Equihash coin

1. Branded Android Wallet (no coinami, freewallet closed source junk) takes about 3 seconds to send BTCZ with almost zero fees.
2. Branded GUI Miner (Does even BTC have that?)
3. No slow start
4. No Supernode Tax
5. No Developer Tax
5. No Premine
6. No ICO
7. No "jump-ship developers" "lets fork" mentality. John Ver of ZCL.
8. Dedicated community
9. No Pump and Dump (yet at least), organic slow yet continuous price and difficulty growth
10. No Central authority. All projects are voted on and crowdfunded
11. Ridiculously low $10M market cap which makes it a great investment to straight up buy and still profitable to mine, compared to pumped ZCL at 300x higher market cap that could collapse any minute the "ZCL mining fund decides to dump their 50,000 voluntary mining TAX".
12. True Bitcoin 2.0 is BTCZ
13. I challenge anyone to present a SINGLE Equihash coin that checks all the above. Equihash seems to be the most profitable algo at least for nVidia miners. No, dont use whattomine, use: https://www.crypto-coinz.net/crypto-calculator/

While no one knows the future, history indicates massive drop after the fork as the total marketcap of a single coin before fork and 2 coins after fork are typically the same. The growth happens after that.

With BTCP ZCL mining fund paying people up to 5 BTCP for a single ZCL mined, it sound like there is a TON of premine in BTCP which means a ton of DUMP after the fork. So invest carefully in a coin that was less than $2 just 6 days ago. IF this is a true 1:1 fork, then how the FK do the pool owners pay out up to 5 BTCP for a single ZCL mined?

Hmmm...  it is strange that you're having issues on two different machines. However it is surely a local problem because everyone else is able to use the wallet without any issue.

I'm not sure what's the solution but did you try clearing the temp files? (Deleting everything in C:\Users\USERNA~1\AppData\Local\Temp  folder?)

The Electrum wallet isn't an installer, it is a stand-alone exe file. You just double-click it and it should run. Are you sure you're running it that way? What's the error you're getting?
